Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish.Each week we will post a new Top Ten list complete with one of our bloggers’ answers. Everyone is welcome to join. If you can’t come up with ten, don’t worry about it—post as many as you can!
I love finding new-to-me authors each year. Of course, their back catalogs always make my TBR list even longer, but it's worth it to discover great talent. I only found six authors to highlight, but they are good ones...
- Neil Gaiman -- Okay, okay, not really new to me in 2013. But this past year, I really came to appreciate his writing. I can't wait to read everything else he has ever written.
- Sarah Addison Allen -- I love her magical realism... Need to read the rest of her books.
- Justin Cronin -- The Passage was amazingly terrifying. I really need to read The Twelve.
- Colleen Gleason -- I really really enjoyed the Victoria Gardella series. I finally downloaded the first in the next related series. Can't wait to read it!
- Laurie R. King -- A book club friend recommended her mystery series and I really liked it. We also saw the author speak at the local library (she's based in the Bay Area).
- George R.R. Martin -- I finally jumped on the band wagon and made it through the first three books. I plan on reading the fourth in the Song of Fire and Ice in January.
